Pfeiffer Cruises Over Lady Bobcats

Jan 15, 2007

The Lees-McRae College Lady Bobcats hosted Pfeiffer University
Lady Falcons in Carolinas-Virginia Athletic Conference action
Monday evening, falling 83-65. The loss drops the Lady Bobcats to
3-9, (1-6 CVAC), while the Lady Falcons move into a tie for top
spot in the conference with the victory, 11-3, (6-1 CVAC).

The Lady Falcons came out flying in the first, quickly
establishing a 5-0 lead before the Lady Bobcats came alive. With
the score tied at 14, the Lady Falcons went on a 14-5 run to hold a
nine point advantage 28-19. A pair of free throws from Stephanie
Mullinax cut the deficit to seven, but that was as close as the
Lady Bobcats would come, as the high flying Lady Falcons poured on
the offence to coast into halftime with a 47-27 lead.

The Lady Falcons would show no signs of letting up in the second
half increasing their lead to as much as 28. The Lady Bobcats
would prove to be no match for their first place CVAC rivals, as
the lead had become insurmountable for the home side, and the
visitors cruised to the eighteen point victory.

Tamara Clay led the visitors with a game high 25 points while
Lauren Brittingham and Raven Truslow contributed 22 and 15
respectively. Cathi Kennings played the role of playmaker for the
Lady Falcons with a game high 9 assists.

The Lady Bobcats had a well balanced attack, with all but two of
the fifteen players dressed hitting the score sheet. Mullinax,
Brittany Roberson and Amanda Huffaker led the Lady Bobcats with
eight points each while Jessica Lunsford had six, and Dianca Jones
and Cameron Crapps added a nickel's worth. Four Lady Bobcats hit
the score sheet with four points apiece. Roberson, (pictured top

The Lady Bobcats will look to regroup Thursday as they close a
three game home stand with CVAC foe Queen's University. Tip off is
set for 5:30pm.
